not at a US Open -- nm - dug Jun 20, 18:34 8
- Is the methodology fundamentally different there? -- nm - David Jun 20, 19:04 7
  - Yes. To make up 11 shots on 2/3 of the field at a normal course, you'd need to shoot about 63-63. - Will Hunting Jun 20, 19:32
  - 11 strokes back at the AT&T Pro Am is not nearly the same as 11 strokes back at a US Open course - dug Jun 20, 19:10 5
    - He'd need to shoot about a 65 both days to give himself any shot. - Will Hunting Jun 20, 19:28
    - So, it's the same? Got it. -- nm - David Jun 20, 19:20 3
      - no, the course setup is totally different for an Open and the field is better by an order of magnitude - dug Jun 20, 19:24 2
        
        11 is 11. Got it. - David Jun 20, 19:32 1
        
        If you think the US Open allows scoring like any other golf tournament, you're the one mistaken. - Will Hunting Jun 20, 19:38
